French police have found serious assault rifles in migrant camps in northern France, raising security concerns. Border Security Command director Charlie Eastaugh said the weapons were seized from people looking to board boats, those organising crossings, and the helmsmen of vessels. The seizures come as French officers face increasing violence while trying to stop Channel crossings.
